See response to Doug. I’m curious about his QB recruiting comment. Those QBs looked no different to me. They were used differently but I have little doubt he could have had them batter away need be.
He's probably talking about Ohio State, where he brought in a new staff and tweaked the offense. His QBs at Ohio State weren't full fledged battering rams and he had NFL sized RBs.
I don't think Haskins, Burrow, or Braxton Miller could have been battering rams. They could run if needed, but not battering rams. Now, at UF, Brantley was neither (couldn't run at all, bad fit all around).
NFL Sized RBs yeah but he still ran the QB a whole hell of a lot
At Ohio State? His QBs ran, but they were more read options, not the way he ran Tebow (and the little we saw of Newton). His RB's at Ohio State had 20+ carries/game. At UF, that was the QBs job.

Saw an article somewhere the other day that said Zach Evans may be visiting late Feb or early March. And will be making. decision not to long after. I thought UF had moved on from him?
Haskins - 6’2/188/PS and Miller 6’2/185/DT; Newton 6’4/232/DT and Tebow 6’3/217/DTI don't think Haskins, Burrow, or Braxton Miller could have been battering rams. They could run if needed, but not battering rams. Now, at UF, Brantley was neither (couldn't run at all, bad fit all around).
I think if we have a light day today (less signings than originally thought) - and it looks like that's the case - we'd take him the second he wanted in.

Yea, I can see that. Looks like he went for smaller guys who threw better. Probably faster or quicker too. Oddly enough, our recruiting has been scattered. AR is 6’4/230/DT but EJ is 6’4/179/DT (all numbers listed are from Rivals during their recruitment). Interestingly, Del Rio is 6’3/203/PS. No doubt he may grow but he is not listed as a DT, a first for Mullen recruited QBs at UF (non-family tradition version like Brantley).
Except for Dwayne Haskins, Meyer's QBs at pOSU averaged around 170 carries a season.
Wow, I see all of the new posts and click on the thread foolishly thinking "maybe there has been some movement that relates to NSD."
I should have known that all I would find would be posters bickering back and forth about something completely not related to the thread title.
Great minds think alike. It has been so frustrating in threads on this site lately. Only about 2% of what is posted actually relates to the topic (and that might be being generous). You have to spend so much time sifting through stupid arguments just to find anything related to the actual topic of any given thread.Finding today’s recruiting news and info in the signing day thread is impossible.
That's because there isn't any....Finding today’s recruiting news and info in the signing day thread is impossible.
